  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • For inclusion in this study, patients must be pediatric atopic dermatitis patients that meet the following criteria and thus be appropriate for observation of pruritus.

  • Body weight of 14 kg or more
  • Outpatients
  • One week or longer has passed since the patient started to use an external steroid preparation at "Strong" or lower grade, or stopped using any external steroid preparation, at the time of obtainment of consent from the patient
  • Pruritus with "2" or higher grade, immediately before initial administration

Who cannot join

  • Use of sustained release adrenocorticotropic hormone (Kenacort® A, Depo-medrol®, etc.), oral preparation of methotrexate, or oral preparation of ciclosporin, within 4 weeks before initial administration of the investigational product
  • Oral intake, inhalation and injection of any steroid within 2 weeks before initial administration of the investigational product
  • Use of any external steroid preparation at "Very Strong" or higher grade in any sites other than the face or scalp within 2 weeks before initial administration of the investigational product
  • Undergoing phototherapy
  • Undergoing specific desensitization therapy or modulation therapy
  • Past history of contact dermatitis caused by external steroid preparation
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Possibility of exacerbation by an external steroid preparation of infectious skin disease caused by bacteria, fungi, or virus
  • Present and past history of convulsive disorder, such as epilepsy (convulsion threshold values may be lowered by the reference drug, Ketotifen Fumarate)
  • Clinically significant hepatic, renal, or cardiac disease or other complications: therefore, judgement that the patient is ineligible for inclusion in this study (Please note that patients must be excluded from the study if the patients fell under Grade 2 or more, in the MHW (Ministry of health and welfare) Adverse Reaction Severity Classification Criteria.)
  • Past history of allergy to any drug
  • Participation in any other clinical study, or history of participation in any other clinical study within 6 months before the date when the patient gave consent to participate in this study
  • Judgement by the Principal Investigator or Investigator that the patient is ineligible for inclusion in this study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing WAL 801 CL Dry Syrup and Ketotifen Fumarate Dry Syrup in people with Dermatitis, Atopic, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Degree of pruritus (time frame: at week 4). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jul 2014.
